….thanks to Marsha for hosting WQWWC https://alwayswrite.blog/2021/08/11/wqwwc-37-lakes-oceans-water/

This challenge requires that we find a quote to go along with the prompt. Here are my two favourite bodies of water in Ontario: Lake Ontario and Georgian Bay.

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Good Morning

….I went out early this morning for my walk before it got too hot

I’m glad that I got my walk in early because I don’t do well in the heat. I drove to the Farmers’ Market this afternoon and even that short trip exhausted me.

It was also suppose to rain but it’s now 6:30 and we still don’t have rain. I would love a good thunderstorm about now.

Water, Water Everywhere – June 27, 2021

I never tire of walking through Col. Sam Smith Park and now that summer is officially here the paths and walkways are particularly busy with walkers, runners and cyclists. Sometimes I like to veer off onto the many beaches throughout the park and find a log to sit on and just enjoy the shoreline.

Water, Water Everywhere – Different Perspectives of the Shores of Lake Ontario

….thanks to Jez for hosting Water, Water Everywhere https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2021/05/31/reflections-7-water-water-everywhere-80/

I’ve posted many photos of Lake Ontario at the bottom of my street. Today I walked a little further east and took a couple of shots towards downtown Toronto. Then I went a little further east and took a shot of the area I had just come from.

I loved how turquoise the water was today (completely untouched…this is the colour).
